Package: grunt (0.5.1)

Secure remote execution via UUCP or e-mail using GPG

GRUNT is a tool to let you execute commands remotely, offline. It will also let you copy files to a remote machine.

To do that, it will use GPG to digitally sign data that you send to your account on a remote machine. If the signature is valid and authorized, the remote will carry out the requested action or save the included file. Thus, it is similar to ssh, but for offline use.

Commands run remotely can have their stdin supplied, and when executed, the stdin supplied to grunt will be sent to the command.
